LiamPodmore Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I'll vou [quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1331630667' post='1575995'] It sounded good...honest! I did put the original pup's back in, but sold it soon after. [/quote] I'll vouch for that, my '86 has EMG's in and sounds amazing, although this is how it came, wasn't by choice.

discreet Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 [quote name='kevin_lindsay' timestamp='1331666273' post='1576924'] The pink bass was a Nordy old style P-Bass made for me by Carey Nordstrand. It's now owned by a guy in Sweden or Finland or thereabouts. [/quote] Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilLordJuju Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I gig all my vintage basses - or all that have a case anyway. I have a couple that won't fit anything. But yeah, you have to look out for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnDeereJack Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 [quote name='razze06' timestamp='1331632884' post='1576054'] Last Saturday I used the CMI Ned Callan, 1971 vintage. One pickup, one vol, one tone, a ton of mahogany (body AND neck!) and a few steel bits. Nothing that could go wrong, so no backup or anything. If you're talking about fear of it getting nicked, well you've got a point. gotta be double careful and don't leave anything lying around... [/quote] God damn it sounded epic as well! I use my custom fretless quite a lot - is '88 classed as vintage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lojo Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I've been gigged by newer basses and I'm vintage Not much to go wrong with a bass so I suppose if it's checked over regular new or old would have no advantage, I've also seen more digital amps fail and gigs more than valve ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
